There were many instances in the book where the family got attacked that could've been prevented if they were paying attention to their surroundings.

They planned out the trip and discussed all the plans for the trip while being at home.

They had different complications while driving, but still were determined on getting to their destination.

They fixed the car, and then stole the family' wallets and valuables, and that switched the whole narrative, because they couldn't spend any money, or basically do anything.

Rodrick was the one who popped the tire which started all the drama.
